He had access to best lawyers he wasn't sentences yet didn't even have a trial and just offed himself?

That's so weird.

Why not at least try fighting it in court first?

He even hired Steve Bannon to run around with a film crew to make a documentary about why he isn’t a gross pedophile before he went to jail. It’s all so nutty. This all occurred while Trump was president btw.

He had been attacked by another inmate weeks prior, and was put on suicide watch.

Suicide watch is its own form of hell.

Keep in mind that Epstein had been sending explicit texts to rich white girls.

Add in a prior conviction, the fact that the whole story was getting media attention, add in the fact that he was facing both federal and state charges and you have the perfect shit storm.

Epstein was going to prison. No lawyer on earth could get him out of it.

As to Epstein's money. Well, those rich white girls have rich daddies who were not happy.

So, if you wanted Epstein dead, for let's say unrelated reasons, the easiest way to do so, would be to bribe a single phycologist to pull Epstein off suicide watch.

Then you pass the message, "kill yourself or else you're going in with general population."

Hell, pass the message through Epstein's own lawyer if you want to. Then you can let him change his will to fuck over his victims as a sort of carrot to the stick of general population.

More likely Epstein or somebody with something to lose knew what kind of crazy shit would undoubtedly come up on discovery, and that was unacceptable.

Rookie mistake, digging a tunnel with no supports. She’s gonna fall through the floor and right into that noose if she’s not careful.

She’s been in that noose her whole life. More nooses await. This should be an interesting standoff. Terrible, but interesting. One side has little to lose, the other side everything. That’s a crazy dynamic.

Not her whole life. She's the daughter of an extremely rich British politician who was found out to have stolen from his companies' pension funds after his death.

Her time with Epstein was by choice. She had family money to live in luxury for the rest of her life.

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah, but she’s skittering around the pan, and she lost some of her leverage when her partner died.

She still has some, but trump has a lot, too.

I wonder how many people believe that diamonds already look like that when you dig them up.

They were buried there by pirates, or something.

A whole generation of geologists is growing up right now to realize this isn’t a thing

Do you have to refine them in the game? My generation learned a lot about this stuff from a combination of RuneScape, WoW, and Elders Scrolls.

[–] Anarki_@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 week ago

Nope. They pop out perfectly faceted.

[–] CaptnNMorgan@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

This implies he killed himself, but doesn't 3 broken bones in his neck imply otherwise?

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm not sure what the title means. Is it a typo of "loser?"

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ah! Thanks. I think it can be edited. Thankfully, this isn't like reddit.

[–] Rekonok@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Oooh thanks I did not knew it

Now I can go back pretending I didn't know what is a reddit

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

AH! Read what?

The diamonds are actually a window tho
